Definitions

  • This invention relates to novel intermediates in the production of vitamin D analogues and of vitamin D analogues which may be produced therefrom.
  • modified vitamin D derivatives have been prepared through modification of sterol precursors which are then converted into vitamin D derivatives through a standard series of steps, normally preliminary conversions of ⁇ 5,7 dienes followed by irradiation of the dienes to give D vitamins. These procedures have serious flaws.
  • All of the available methods for the synthesis of ⁇ 5,7 dienes tend to give mixtures of products or require a number of steps and proceed in relatively low yield.
  • the second difficulty is that the only known transformation of the 5,7 dienes into the vitamins involves irradiation followed by thermal equilibration. Irradiation intrinsically gives rise to a mixture of byproducts. This limits the yield of the desired vitamin and furthermore complicates its recovery in pure form.
  • vitamin D 2 and related compounds can be converted to a protected form capable of withstanding the reaction conditions necessary for oxidative cleavage of the 22,23-double bond to form a 22-aldehyde which can then be converted to other derivatives as described hereinafter.
  • vitamin D 2 compounds in either the cis or trans configuration can be stabilised by formation of a Diels Alder dienophile adduct which can subsequently be reconverted to the trans form of the vitamin after the side-chain modification.
  • the trans vitamin analogues can then be efficienctly converted into the active cis form by known reactions.
  • R represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl protecting group
  • Y represents a hydrogen atom or an optionally protected hydroxyl group
  • X represents ⁇ SO 2 or the residue of a diacylazo dienophile and either R 1 represents a halogen atom a hydrocarbylsulphonyloxy group or a group of the formula -Z-R 3 (in which Z represents ⁇ O ⁇ ⁇ S ⁇ ⁇ SO ⁇ ⁇ NR 4 ⁇ or ⁇ CR 4 R 5 ⁇ and R 3 , R4 and R 5 , which may be the same or different, each represents a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched aliphatic group having 1-12 carbon atoms and which may optionally carry one or more substituents) and R 2 represents a hydrogen atom or R 1 and R 2 together represent an oxo group or an optionally substituted alkylidene group, except that R 1 together with the group -CH(CH 3
  • the above compounds are useful intermediates in the preparation of vitamin D analogues i.e. compounds of general formulae IV and IVa wherein R, Y, R 1 and R 2 are as hereinbefore defined.
  • the above compounds of general formulae IV and IVa are also novel and constitute a still further feature of this invention.
  • the Diels Alder adduct formed from either the 5,6-cis- or the 5,6-trans-vitamin starting material exists as a mixture of two possible isomers at the 6-position.
  • the eventual removal of the Diels Alder residue always generates a compound of the 5,6-trans configuration, there is no need to distinguish between such 6-isomers or to effect their separation.
  • R 1 may be a group of the formula Z-R 3 , where Z is -0-, -S-, -SO-, ⁇ NR 4 or -CR 4 R 5- and R 3 , R 4 and R 5 , which may be the same or different, are each a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched aliphatic group having 1-12 carbon atoms which may carry one or more substituents such as, for example halogen atoms (e.g. fluorine), or optionally protected hydroxyl groups.
  • substituents such as, for example halogen atoms (e.g. fluorine), or optionally protected hydroxyl groups.
  • the group R 3 in the final products should be of the formula (in order to provide a 17 ⁇ -side chainbf approximately the shape present in natural vitamin D compounds) with the possibility of substitution as described above.
  • the heteroatoms Z, where present, do not greatly change the overall shape of the side chain.
  • the invention enables compounds of formula IV and IVa to be prepared in which R' is of formula wherein Z' represents -0-, -S-, -NH- or -SO- and R 6 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl protecting group, the la-position optionally carrying a hydroxyl or protected hydroxyl group, these being analogues of the active metabolite 25-hydroxy vitamin D 3 ,
  • Protected hydroxyl groups may, for example, be acyl groups e.g. alkanoyl groups (preferably having 1-6 carbon atoms), aralkanoyl groups (preferably having 7-15 carbon atoms), aroyl groups (preferably having 6-12 carbon atoms), cyclic ether groups or tri-hydrocarbylsilyl groups.
  • alkanoyl groups preferably having 1-6 carbon atoms
  • aralkanoyl groups preferably having 7-15 carbon atoms
  • aroyl groups preferably having 6-12 carbon atoms
  • cyclic ether groups or tri-hydrocarbylsilyl groups.

  • the new synthetic analogues of the invention have modified vitamin D properties of interest in medicine.
  • the compounds of formulae IV and IVa in which R 1 has the above meanings may be prepared, inter alia, by nucleophilic substitution reactions on compounds of formula IV and IVa in which R 1 represents a halogen atom, such as a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom, or a leaving group, for example a hydrocarbylsulphonyloxy group O ⁇ SO 2 R 7 in which R 7 represents, for example, an alkyl group (preferably having 1-6 carbon atoms), an aryl group (preferably having 7-15. carbon atoms).
  • the tosyloxy group is preferred.
  • the above compounds may be prepared from corresponding compounds of formula I and the dienophile group X removed subsequently. Since, however, the nucleophilic substitution reactions are mostly carried out in the presence of a base and since the protected compounds of formula I are less stable to base than the parent trienes of formula IV and IVa, the latter are commonly preferred substrates.

Due to the basicity of the reagent, a substrate of formula IV or IVa is preferred. Where the amine is liquid it is preferably reacted without added solvent.
  • the 22-aza derivatives may often conveniently be isolated as N-acylates, such as N-acetates, which may be formed by reaction with an appropriate acid anhydride.
  • the 22-hydrocarbylsulphonyloxy derivatives of formulae I, IV and IVa used in the above reactions may be prepared by reacting the corresponding alcohol with the appropriate hydrocarbylsulphonyl halide, e.g. tosyl chloride in the presence of a base such as pyridine. Best results have been obtained by effecting this reaction on a compound of formula I in which X is S0 2 , and removing the SO 2 residue by thermolysis, as described hereinafter.
  • the compounds of formula I, IV or IVa in which Z in R 1 is CR 4 R 5 may be prepared by reacting compounds of formula 1, IV or lVa carrying a hydrocarbylsulphonyloxy group R', e.g. a tosyl group, with carbon nucleophiles. Suitable carbon nucleophiles are Grignard reagents reacted in the presence of a copper catalyst, e.g. a cuprous salt.
  • 25-hydroxy vitamin D 3 and the la-hydroxy derivative thereof may be prepared by reacting an appropriate hydrocarbylsulphonyloxy derivative of formula I, IV or IVa with a Grignard reagent of the formula (where R 6 has the above meaning) in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of cuprous iodide.

  • Methyldiphenylphosphine oxide (1.5 g) was suspended in ether (20 ml) at 0°C. BuLi (1.2 eq) was slowly added, and an orange coloured solution formed. To this was added isobutylene epoxide (0.8 ml, 1.3 eq). After approx. 15 min, the mixture was carefully quenched with water. This mixture was extracted with CH 2 Cl 2 (2x) and the organic layer was washed with 4% aqueous HCI/brine and concentrated. The resulting yellow, oily product was dissolved in a water-ether mixture and the layers separated. The ether layer was washed once with water, and the combined aqueous fractions extracted with CH 2 Cl 2 (3x).
  • the adduct (200-600 mg) was refluxed overnight, under argon in ethanol (10 ml) and hydrazine (3 ml). After cooling to room temperature, the solvents were removed under reduced pressure and the resulting solid taken up in water (30 ml) and CH 2 Cl 2 (30 ml). To this two-phase system under argon was added dianisyltellurium oxide (150-450 mg), K 2 CO 3 (6 g) and 1,2-dibromotetrachloroethane (3 g), and the mixture stirred for approx. 5 hr (tic control). After acid work-up the mixture was chromatographed through silica gel (12 g) and the product removed from traces of tellurium oxidant by plc to give the desired vitamin D compound in 85-93% yield.

  • Sulphur dioxide was slowly passed through a well-stirred mixture of benzene (100 ml) and water (50 ml) containing ergocalciferol (5 g), for a total of 3.5 hr. After this time, air was passed through the mixture for approx. 20 min. Ether and brine were added and the layers separated. Aqueous work-up gave the known sulphur dioxide adducts (172a, 173a) which were used without further purification.
  • NMO N-Methylmorpholine N-oxide
  • Adducts of (1) above (3 g) was stirred in refluxing methanol (50 ml) containing NaHC0 3 (3 g) for 2.5 hr. Work-up as described above gave 2.36 g (90%) of the calciferol.
  • Ethyl-2-mercapto acetate (10 ml) was added to dry ether (150 ml). The well-stirred solution was cooled to 0°C, and an ethereal solution of methyl magnesium bromide (3 M soln., 100 ml., 3.3 eq) was added dropwise over 1.5 hr. The mixture was removed from the ice bath and stirred for an additional 30 min. Ammonium chloride (18 g) in water was carefully added, and the mixture neutralised with hydrochloric acid to form 2 clear layers. The layers were separated and the ether layer washed with water/brine and dried. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the product distilled to give 4.4 g of the thiol. b.p.
  • Example 14 To the tosylate from Example 14 (2.51 g) in THF (125 ml) and HMPTA (3 ml) was added 1-mercapto-2-methylpropan-2-ol from Example 16 (3 ml). The mixture was degassed and NaH (50% dispersion in oil, 1.3 g) was added. After 2 hr, water was added and the mixture diluted with benzene/CH 2 Cl 2 . Acid work-up followed by chromatography and crystallisation from CH 2 Cl 2 /ether gave 1.71 g (77%) of the title sulphide. m.p.
  • Example 18 To the diol of Example 18 (400 mg) in CH 2 CI (15 ml) was added imidazole followed by triethylsilylchloride (450 ⁇ l). After 7 hrs, water was added and the mixture diluted with CH 2 Cl 2 . Acid work-up gave the crude bis TES derivative which was used without further purification.
  • UV ⁇ max 274 nm; 1 Hnmr 5 6.55 and 5.88 (ABq, J 12Hz, C-6H, 7H), 5.1 (s, C-19H), 5.0 (s, C-19H), 4.75-4.02 (m, C-1H, 3H), 3.65-3.12 (m, C-22H 2 ), 3.25 (s, C-24H 2 ).
  • Example 45 The crude amine from Example 45 derived from the tosylate (100 mg) as described above, in methanol (5 ml) containing K 2 CO 3 (500 mg) was treated with acetic anhydride (0.2 ml). The mixture was diluted with CH 2 Cl 2 washed with brine and dried to give, after pic, 50 mg [55% from tosylate] of the title amide. Solid from CH 2 CI 2 /hexane. m.p.
  • Cuprous iodide 100 mg was placed in a flask and purged with argon, whilst cooling to 0°C. To this was added the above Grignard solution (5 ml), and the purple coloured mixture stirred for an additional 30 min at 0°C. A solution of the tosylate (278c) (200 mg) in ether (2 ml) was added and the mixture stirred for 40 min at room temperature. Water was added and the reaction mixture extracted with ether. After an acid work-up, the non-polar product was isolated by plc contaminated with large quantities of low molecular weight alkyl residues. This mixture was stirred with n-Bu 4 NF (1 M soln.
  • Example 47 The product from Example 47 (100 mg) in benzene (30 ml) and triethylamine (3 drops) containing anthracene (25 mg) was thoroughly degassed and irradiated for 1 hr as described above to give, after purification by pic, the title 5(Z) compound (90 mg, 82%).
